    The live painter idea has always interested me. I'm just concerned about how long I'd have to stand still for them to get the picture Smiley xd Party bus isn't really our style.

    Party buses aren’t my style and they aren’t really his anymore. The painter would be interesting but it doesn’t sound very practical.

    I'm going to say party bus. Some of our bridal party are already planning on where we can have our after party and how they plan to get everyone to and from. I do think a live painter is a cool idea but if I have to stand still for too long I'm not interested.

    Painter, neither really fit our style or personalities.

    We are having a live painterSmiley smile it’s one of the main things I wanted and I’m so glad I found a great one! You don’t have to stand still for the painting, they do it in real time while everything is going on... can’t wait to see my final painting.

    Probably the bus for practicality purposes.

    I don't want to stay still enough for a painter so I would go with the party bus

    We are having a party bus. My dad insisted on upgrading us from a limo to a party bus so we have more space and are more comfortable. Our ceremony and reception venues are a 40 minute drive from each other.

    I'm not really a fan of either, but if I had to choose, I'd pick the painter. Our wedding and reception are at the same location and our bridal party are staying at the hotel where we set up room blocks extremely close to our venue, so there is no need for a party bus (even though my FH would love the get a party bus, lol).

    A live painter! I love them and looked into having one but decided against it.

    Party Bus. My favorite part of my older sister's wedding was the drinking in the limo with the bridal party before the reception

    The last thing we'd want to do is stand still for a painter. Party bus all the way! I mean the painter lovely on screen but not practical in my opinion!

    I think I would prefer the live painter. We don't need to transport anyone so the party bus sounds like a waste of money.

    Oh definitely a party bus, i feel like my FH could not stand still long enough for a live painter, and i feel like that might take a long time, but a party bus we could enjoy and be silly together.

    Having a live painter is pretty unique but I wouldn't want to be positioned a certain way for however long for them to paint it. Party bus wins my vote.
